It was studied the effects of replacing ground corn with coffee hulls on intake, apparent digestibility, and milk production and composition of lactating dairy cows. Twelve Holstein-Zebu dairy cows were blocked by days in milk and randomly assigned to three 4 x 4 Latin squares. The following levels of coffee hulls were included in the concentrate portion of the diet: 0.0, 8.75, 17.5, or 26.25% of dry mater (DM). Diets were formulated to be isonitrogenous (14% CP) and contained a […]

The effects of five dietary concentrate levels on the body composition and on the net requirements of protein and energy for weight gain were evaluated. Twenty nine F1 Simental Nellore bulls, averaging 17 months of age and initial 354 kg LW, were used. Five animals were slaughtered at the beginning of the experiment, as a reference, to estimate the initial empty body weight (EBW) and the initial concentrations of fat, protein and energy. The remaining animals were allotted to a […]
